Building Effective Relationships In order to
ensure the long-term future of the school
swimming pool we have been engaging with
the local community. One of our main
achievements was introducing an online
swimming pool booking system which has
ensured the whole community can easily
access the benefits of swimming. The money
generated through this contributes the costs
of the swimming pool. Community members
have also worked with the KTSCA on the
SPLASHOUT III project. This will replace
ageing plant room equipment and refurbish
the pool. We have received grant money
and donations towards this project.

Advancement of Education
In order to provide workshops and
equipment, we also hosted several
fundraising activities throughout the year,
many of which were open to the community.
We hosted an Easter ‘Egg’stravaganza,
autumn event shopping event and adult craft
night, bunny hop, school discos, secret room
gift events, Christmas fayre, raffles, non-
uniform days, cake sales and lollipop sales.
Building Effective Relationships
Introducing the online swimming booking
system this year has enabled us to
effectively engage with the community and
offer everyone the opportunity to enjoy the
health benefits of swimming. The money
received from this will enable the school to
continue to provide swimming as a
curriculum activity and cover day to day
running costs of the swimming pool.
The SPLASHOUT III is project is a
community project where community
members have come together to support the
KTSCA in fundraising for new pool
equipment and pool refurbishment. This
project will support the school children and
wider community to live a healthy active
lifestyle.
